This cute French pops starts with piano playing and light percussion. The whispery female vocals perfectly match the polished melody. This fashionable song sounds like it was from a one scene cut in a French movie. By the way, the title "Mobo・Moga" is an abbreviation of "Modern Boy・Modern Girl". If anything, won't you decide to dance while wearing French-styled fashion? | |||

There's a "~ballroom dance" on the third floor of an old building barely outside the town center, isn't there?<br> | |||
When I was walking around town, I somehow stared at middle-aged people dancing in grandiose outfits through the glass window, and they seemed to be moving at a high-speed.<br> | |||
It's just like fast-forwarding a video.<br> | |||
"This is it! This is the world!"<br> | |||
While thinking this, I immediately started writing this song the next day.<br> | |||
Mobo★Moga was a ballroom dance song. The concept is a sped-up ballroom dance.<br> | |||
I created this song while thinking about what middle-aged people are doing in that unique and narrow world. It's passionate. And strong.<br> | |||
The orchestra was more heavy at first. It seemed to interact with the rhythms. It's so moody!<br> | |||
Unfortunately, when I added the vocals, it became fashionable... damn it! (laughs)<br> | |||
But, I prefer fashionable girls like Toffee&Tart than middle-aged women, so that's great. | |||

It was a very cute song, so I made a video using twin girls with a theme of a "POP LIFE-like playing house" (because the two things that are symmetrical is a cute image).<br> | |||
... However, during the latter half of production, I realized that the title meant "Modern Boy & Girl".... how disappointing. | |||

This song is adorable, so I drew a picture of large eyes. (It's a bit scary though..) The song's sequences are relatively difficult! That gap is probably great. | |||
It's fairy tale-like~! I wanted to make the movie like that. A toy airplane is spinning in the background of the Ferris wheel movie. Did you notice it? It's a movie with a spinning person's silhouette dancing. I've never done ballroom dancing, but I tried to create a dance with that image. | |||
